Lobster

The Lobster font took a different approach. The new Open Type fonts give us the possibility to have multiple versions of each letter, and that's exactly what we are doing: Instead of compromising the design of our letters to force connections, we do what lettering artist do. We draw many versions of each letter and a lot of different letter-pairs (aka "ligatures") so we always use the best possible variation of each letter depending of the context of the letter inside each word. All this happens automatically in any browser that supports ligatures.

Days One is an experiment, which was established in 2008 by three people: Alexander Kalachev, Ivan Gladkikh, Alexei Maslov. Letterforms are wide, and the strokes are thick.

In fact, a lot of time is spend developing free knock-offs of ugly "standards" like Times and Helvetica.
